hexojs/hexo 4.2.0

on GitHub

Features

• Caching is disabled by default in hexo-server [#3963]
  • It's disabled so that any changes (particularly to the theme's layout) can be previewed in real-time.
  • If you use hexo-server in production environment to serve your website, it can be enabled by,

  _config.yml
  server:
    cache: true

• Add min_depth: option to toc() helper [#3997]
  • Example usage:

  <%- toc(page.content, { min_depth: 2 }) %>
  // table of content would only include <h2>, <h3> and above

Fixes

• Merges similar theme configs in main config and theme's config [#3967]
  • For example:

  _config.yml
  theme_config:
    a:
      b: 'foo'

  • Plus,

  _config.yml of theme
  a:
    c: 'bar'

  • theme variable should have,

  a: {
    b: 'foo',
    c: 'bar'
  }
  

• Fixes some caching issue [#3985]
• Open Graph now applies all pretty_urls options to og:url tag [#3983]

Refactor

• No longer uses lodash [#3969], [#3987], [#3753]

  • Lodash _ is still available as a global variable, usually utilized in theme layout.
  • However, we plan to completely drop it in the coming Hexo 5.0.0
  • This project page includes all the relevant pull requests which you may find useful

• Completely drops cheerio [#3850], [#3677]

  • This means Hexo no longer includes cheerio as part of its production dependencies (it's still a development dependency)
  • This also means the following initialization methods no longer work,

  const cheerio = require('./node_modules/hexo/node_modules/cheerio/index')
  const cheerio = require('./node_modules/cheerio/index')

  • To use cheerio,

  $ npm install --save cheerio

  const cheerio = require('cheerio')
